How to Fast-Forward and Rewind More Than 10 Seconds in the YouTube App.

Share this

On Android and iOS, it’s simple to fast forward or rewind in YouTube. However, if you wish to jump for more than 10 seconds at a time, follow these steps.

Consider this scenario: you’re looking for something significant on the internet and you come across a YouTube video that explains it. It does, however, include an intro, as do most YouTube videos. So you double-tap on the right a few times in an attempt to skip it.

However, the part that you are interested in is still missing, wasting your time.

While the double-tap to skip feature is important, it isn’t always enough, especially in videos with an endless intro or sponsored message. To assist you to escape the delay, there is a technique to fast-forward or rewind a YouTube video for longer than the typical 10 seconds.

In a YouTube video, how to skip through more than 10 seconds

  • On your Android or iOS device, open the YouTube app.
  • In the top corner, tap on your profile picture.
  • Go to General > Settings.
  • To seek, double-tap the device.
  • Choose your preferred length for a single double-tap now.

This feature allows you to extend the duration of a single double-tap from 10 to 60 seconds. It operates in both forward and backward directions.

Skip Past Content Faster in YouTube

People watch YouTube videos for a variety of reasons, including amusement, learning a new skill, and emergency guidance. In any case, having a function that gives you flexibility and control is useful.

That’s exactly what the Double-Tap to Seek feature accomplishes. When double-tapping on either side of a YouTube video to go forward or back faster, it allows you to choose the length of progress you can make. This function can come in handy if you’re in a hurry or simply want to save time when watching long videos.
